Great experience visiting Giza pyramids - private tour with Ahmed Elsayed
An amazing experience from start to finish. Visited during Ramadan hoping it would be less busy, our driver (Abdu) and tour guide (Ahmed Elsayed) picked us up on time from our apartment and within 40 minutes we were at the Giza pyramids. On the way there, Ahmed was super impressive with his knowledge of Egyptian history, pointing out the relevant landmarks and answering our questions throughout. Honestly it was like having a live Egyptian Wikipedia page.
I bought general admission tickets for the pyramids online and we had no issues or hassling there. The entrance is pretty modern with plenty of info on the displays. There is a hop on and hop off bus you can take in between the pyramids. We also paid an extra 500 EGP for a short camel ride and some pics at the panoramic site. Having watched some YT videos beforehand, we opted not to go into the pyramids although it didn't look too busy.
Our driver Abdu then picked us up on the way back to take us to the apartment. Overall a really enjoyable, informative and hassle free experience.

Trip of a lifetime!!! Excellent tour guide
We loved our full day experience! We visited the pyramids, went inside the Great pyramid, saw the sphinx, went to take pictures at the panoramic view, took a 20 minute camel ride, went for a shawarma lunch, and visited some local shops to get papyrus art, spices, and dates. Our tour guide, Nada, was excellent!!! She was extremely knowledgeable about the history of the pyramids, sphinx, and of the Egyptian civilization! We really enjoyed spending the day learning from her. She was very professional and made the experience that much more authentic and enjoyable!

Nicht zu empfehlen - besser selber organisieren!
Die Tour hat sich für uns nicht gelohnt. Der Guide war zwar sehr nett und die Infos okay, aber man verpasst viel von der Magie des Ortes. Wer sparen will und mehr sehen möchte, sollte auf eigene Faust losziehen. Einfach per Uber zum neuen West-Eingang fahren, Tickets selbst kaufen und das Gelände entdeckt. Es gibt dort an jedem Spot Shuttlebusse die alle paar Minuten fahren. Wir machen es Ende der Woche genau so noch einmal richtig.
Für zwei Personen haben wir knapp unter 100€ gezahlt, was in meinen Augen nicht gepasst hat.

Amazing day at the pyramids with Yemani
I had an amazing day visiting the pyramids with Yemani. He’s super knowledgeable and explained everything in a way that was easy to understand! The whole experience felt more like hanging out with a friend than being on a formal tour, which made it even better. He was relaxed, fun to talk to, I couldn’t have asked for a better guide and would 100% recommend him to anyone visiting.

Great tour, pleasant weather
Merna was a great guide. She was extremely accommodating of our schedule and had great knowledge of the history associated with the pyramids. She also took us to a papyrus haven as well as a lovely perfume store.
